I installed the OpenHaltRestart_1.0.3.kext to try and get sleep working, but it did not work. But the main issue that I have is that when I Shutdown the system will shutdown ok and then restart..
If I restart it works fine and everything else works ok, cept for sometimes when I boot the screen is just blue, but I fix that by moving my mouse to the bottom left corner as I have that set to sleep the monitor and that seems to get it back.
Anyone got any ideas on the shutdown problem ?

Was it shutting down properly before you installed the kext? If so, try removing the kext since it's not helping your sleep woes anyway.
Yeah I thought of that, only I dont know how to remove it yet as have never done it before
Ok think I worked it out.
Have removed openHaltRestart.kext.
Will test
Try dragging the kext to the Trash, then emptying the trash (if you haven't done this).
Use -F at the boot prompt to make it load the actual kexts instead of Extensions.mkext, where a copy of OpenHaltRestart may still reside.
This *should* correct the problem if the kext was the cause.
